This weekend was pretty fun. Got some work done on the deck on Saturday (thanks for the help Kevin!). Then it was off for a night at Maduro's, which was very nice. Excellent scotch selection! We wrapped the night up at the Great Dane for some munchies. We sat in the outdoor beer garden, which I didn't know they had. I still despise the West side location of the Dane, but the downtown one is ok. Great munchies at least.
On Sunday several of us hit the Milwaukee Zoo, and then we went to the Potawatomi Casino for a buffet and a little distraction. I had heard a lot of good things about their poker room, so I entertained myself in there for a bit. Made a whole whopping $10 at it. I should have made more, but the guy to my right stayed in on hands that he had no business playing and got the miracle river on me twice. That cost me a bit, but at least I left up. The amusing thing is that I was playing kinda distracted, because I may have had a friend of a friend at the table, and spent a good chunk of the time trying to decide if he was or not. I didn't want to disrupt the whole table by saying to the guy at the other end of the table "Hey, are you Waikan? You look like a guy I saw on John McCarville's website." It's always hard to tell when you're going off a memory of a picture of someone you haven't directly met. So John, If Waikan was playing 2/4 hold 'em on table 7 on Sunday night, tell him the guy that was shuffling the red chips the whole time he was there (about an hour) says sorry I took some pots from you! 8-)
And now, back to the weekly grind...

I'll have to sit down near you and take a look at that game. I have very little idea on how the stratiergy (sp on purpose) is.
We play some cheap friendly games up here every couple of weeks, and usually have several people who aren't very familiar with it playing. If you come up some weekend and are interested, we could try to set a game up. I'm loving playing poker. Mind games plus some luck and chance equals fun lol.
Sweet!
Most of my weekends have been either traveling around to the cottage or other places or working on my house or dads house. I thought it was hard enough for just one place. At least I dont have to cut the grass at dads.
Vegas is coming up! Sept 24th weekend.
Depending on what package deal I do, it looks like 55 or 65 bucks a day for hotel and airfare per person.
I still need to bust out an official email to see who would want to go so I can figure out what it would be for each person and what time people would want to stay. I want to go thurs night to Monday afternoon.
Some want Friday AM to Sunday night.
Hmm.....
